n—the number of books
p—the price for one book
t—the tax on one book

The initial Q boils down to Is n(p-t)>100?

(1) n>9 not suff
(2) p=10.50+t not suff, for we do not know n. p-t=10.50

Combine: Sufficient

I agree with the answer and explanation mentioned above, but the official answer to this question is E :cry:

Are we missing something? Or the answer sheet is just wrong?

I think by 'plus tax' they mean 'including tax'. In which case the answer would be E.
